Real home authentic Japanese food with a touch of upscale. I prefer this place over the more popular and expensive Nori. They... make the food fresh, delicious and a touch fancy but not over the top. Prices for the quality is good and the service wasfriendly. The only minor annoyance is finding parking but it's worth it. Overall I recommend this place over Nori for Japanesecuisine. Read more

Food was amazing, service was amazing and decent serving for price. The only thing is the restaurant was very warm and it didn't... seem like they had air conditioning. Make sure to make a reservation as it fills up quick. Read more

Great food made to order!!! Stopped in for a quick dinner and was not disappointed at all. Food was amazing and full of... flavour while portions sizes were fairly big and prices competitive. Great menu selection from sushi and sashimi to udon andramen noodles and katsu and rice. Excellent service, super friendly and professional as well accommodating. Read more

I'm from Vancouver and had dinner here while on vacation. The food was delicious, I loved the dessert especially! (I... accidentally left my purse at the restaurant, the owner was very kind and mailed it to me, thank you!!!) Read more

Very good service, and foods were good too. It was my first time here, one thing made me think I will visit back because usually... Japanese restaurants just have kids plates but they even have kids water cups with little straws and kids chopsticks. Verythoughtful. Read more

Best ramen in Nanaimo, hands down. Great noodle texture, silky and full broth, pork was melt in your mouth delicious. Small... restaurant that books up very quickly, so we recommend making a reservation far in advance instead of walking in. They usuallyhave patio tables as well in the summer months. Chicken karaage was very good too. Will be back to try more dishes! Read more

Stopped by for an early dinner on Tues. the shop was kinda busy for a tues dinner. Service was excellent. Our waitress the short... hair lady was very friendly, helpful, positive and attentive. The other lady was also nice. I think the owner and manager did anexcellent job hiring and training your staff! Food wasn?t the best but good and affordable. We ordered Beef Udon (6/10),original tonkatsu (8/10), BBQ squid (highlight of the meal - highly recommended!), vanilla ice cream and special green teatiramisu (7/10). May be back when we visit Nanaimo next time and will definitely recommend to my friends! Great job guys Read more

Terrific sushi place in Nanaimo's old district. The fish in the sushi rolls tasted fresh and the miso soup was very tasty,... especially on a cold, rainy day. Very reasonably priced. Tons of gluten free options too. I particularly recommend the scallopmayo roll, as it was one of the best rolls I've ever had. Read more
